Reading Made Fun for Diverse Learners

My students need an updated library to include diverse literature that is designed to engage, inspire, and promote expansion of the their worldview. My students also need sensory tools to support engagement, emotional and physical needs.

My Students

I am an Intervention Specialist who supports my students in their inclusion based setting. My students love to learn and are challenged with obstacles such as learning disabilities and sensory needs. With intervention supports and LOTS of encouragement, my students are successful in their learning. They are passionate about learning, inquisitive, and incredible problem solvers.

Many of my students require supports in their home life that we provide in school such as social-emotional education, learning tools, and structure to support independence in their learning.

We are able to give our students engaging projects and challenges to become life long learners.

My Project

The books I have chosen are representative of all kinds of learners and will support my students' expansion of their worldview. My students will be able to delve into diverse literate at a level that is age appropriate and engaging. Providing my students with age appropriate literate will support my students love of reading and give them confidence in reading texts that are accessible and appropriate.

My students require more sensory tools to increase engagement, support emotional/physical needs, and provide accessibility for ALL learners.

As diverse learners, my students have varying sensory input needs that can often be exhibited as inappropriate fidgeting, loss of focus, and great need for motion that would be supported by sensory tools.
